Just give me a second darlingTo clear my headJust put down the scissors baby, on this single bedThe sand in the hourglass is running lowI came through thunder, the cold windThe rain, and the snowTo find you awake by your windowsillA sight for sore eyes and a view to kill

I broke down in horror at you standing thereThe glow from the moonShone through cracks in your hair.I shouted with passion, "I love you so much"But feeling my skin, it was cold to the touch.You whispered, "Where are you?"I questioned your doubtBut soon realized, you were talking to God now.

But, you have blood on your handsAnd I know it's mineI just need more timeSo get off your low and let's dance like we used toAnd there's a light in the distanceWaiting for me, and I will wait for youSo get off your low and let's kiss like we used to

I looked in the mirrorBust something was wrong.I saw you behind but my reflection was gone.There was smoke in the fireplaceAs white as the snow.A voice beckoned gently, "Now it's time to go"A requiem played as you begged for forgiveness"Don't touch me," I screamed, "I've got unfinished business!"

But, you've got blood on your handsAnd I know it's mineI just need more timeSo get off your low and let's dance like we used toAnd there's a light in the distanceWaiting for me, and I will wait for youSo get off your low and let's kiss like we used to

Cause, you've got blood on your handsAnd I know it's mineI just need more timeSo get off your low and let's dance like we used toAnd there's a light in the distanceWaiting for me, and I will wait for youSo get off your low and let's kiss like we used to
